PATHOGENS LIKE ASTRONAUTS
HURTLING THROUGH AN
OCEANSTREAMROUGE
(UNIVERSE)
AS A LIVING TUNNEL
THE LITTLE WIND-UP COCKSMAN WORKED ITS WAY TOWARD THE
THEATRE, A SUIT, A PAIR OF SHOES, A HAT, A CIGARETTE,
A FLUORESCENT CONDOM, A DISEASE, A CARRIER-OR-ACTION FIGURE, A
MINOR PLAYER, A SORT OF SONNY CHIBA SUBPLOT OF BACTERIAL
OMNISEXUALITY, A LIMINAL IDENTITY POISED TO INTERPRET SOCIAL
ORGANELLES, THE HUNGRY GHOSTS OF PUNCTUATED EQUILIBRIUM
WAIT IN THE WINGS WITH WIDE EYES BRIMMING WITH ANXIOUS TEARS
SUCKING ON SHIT-POPS AND HUMMING THE JACOBEAN LYRICS QUIETLY
TO THEMSELVES....
good and evil
there was no good good enough no evil evil enough
they had turbo-charged desiring machines hyperdrives
they had the fossil lust of 40 billion years in their broken bodies but
they
could not do it all everyone has to die sooner or later they knew it we
knew it
(shedding well the dream that blew out our candles made of bundled scrolls,
superfluous history fuels my whining death) they couldn't go on it was over
the long wait was over and they were placed encased in amber in a museum
built to their madness in Hollywood it had started as a glass box a sort
of
diorama or wunderkammern a mold they had filled with rare poisonous
spiders genetically engineered giant luminous snakes human skulls
stretched altered as if they were made of taffy mummified animal organs
rolled in exotic spices chunks of chernobilite giant gems from embattled
african nations stolen gold bearing the hallmark of the catholic church
or
the united states government finest cantonese silk fat blue maggots pink
testicle leaches bottles filled with exotic diseases hannas aids leprosy
genetic disorders transferred to viral agents marfans syndrome
disprosopus etc the left testicle of walt disney the bellybutton of freud
they
then crawled in naked and let their lovemaking create an even admixture
of
all the objects like some awful neapolitan laocoon the lugubrious living
statuary flounders in its autoferalsuicidatavism of prophetic copulamancy
writhing in a post-historical poly-milieu of transhamanic
eidolonicolonicleansing manifesting a portrait of the alchemical marriage
in
the prima materia the schitzodirt of terran noise as they climax in a
shuddering hyper-contextual wargasm of evil genius they are covered in a
special quick drying amber that fills in all the spaces except for the glyphlike
bubbles full of ecstasy antiterror and the hungry climactic madness of their
final issuance of breath this great antisculpture posits the universal
hegemony of the sculptural context it reveals the failure of language in
a
universe of fluctuating forms to provide anything of value to a post-human
god the critics demurred they held week long ritualistic skull piercing
contemplation seminars at the museum where the strange couple had been
entombed....

THE SECOND IMAGE WAS THAT OF
A GIANT STONE HEAD*
a giant beast head with stylized curls
being whorl-like seashell like and
through its open lips
pouring unceasing was a fabulous tapestry
which was quickly gathered by hunched crones
in terricloth chadors using great bronze
shears and then taken by camel to a great
canal.....
they harvest the imagetongue
of the
guardian
and from this target image this king's X
become a head, head of states, every
human act can be depicted with
hieroglyphic accuracy
*a problematic machine threatening the
world with a new "ecology" of dead
simulacrum, all from the nightmare of an
interior designer...
